Odd, how when I log in, I note the name of the newest member and then note that Outworld has some new postings and even before I click the link I know the Brain in a Jar has tagged himself another spambot...

There's been a rash of them lately ... after things went quiet a while back, we're now getting a reliable one or two per day. Not quite the glory days of old, but the clocktower is getting some regular use! We'll have to see about getting a space heater in here ...

It just makes me smile that you consistently beat me to tagging them by 21 minutes...

However, many a beady eye makes for a dead spambot! Keep up the good work (just let us know if you're going to be away from an internet connection for any length of time!)

Yeah. It's time to upgrade the flak gun turrets on the top of the tower. And let's upgrade our resident brain to a bigger jar while we're at it.

or having lunch 22 minutes earlier, or my evening meal, D is consistently just ahead of me throughout the day... it's an uncanny knack

Obviously, the jar must be sitting 5º15' East of your location...
